Macro Mondays - Snack
Happy Macro Monday everyone.
As it's not a high day or a holiday, there aren't any naughty snacks in the house, so some walnuts and an apple will have to do :))
A Black Walnut branch fills this mosaic with beauty and subtle color. The shining sun beams through the nine leaves on the branch.
The original image was captured with my iPhone 11 in my right hand, while my left hand held the branch up against the sun.
This collage was created in picmonkey.com using my one original image and replicated six times here.
Beauty is everywhere. Reach out and capture it!

Last night we had a football evening full of excitement, and in order to reduce the tension since we were rooting for different national teams, we decided to use that time and crack nuts while watching TV. The action was successful because we didn't get nervous so mush and at the end we had 2 kg of cleaned walnuts.
HSoS!
Sorry, another squirrel image, and there will be more as due to the ugly weather it's difficult to take new photos. The truth is, though, that I would probably return to the squirrels rather quicky if the weather got better and take even more photos. Visiting Monrepos and watching the squirrels is among the few things I enjoy about the cold season.
RCPE MMNAU rolls west on the former C&NW "Alco Line" outside of Walnut Grove, Minnesota behind a trio of former IC&E 6400s.
If you offer various types of nuts to the squirrels at Monrepos, they will go for the walnuts first. Walnuts in shell are carried away and buried somewhere for later use whereas unshelled walnuts are eaten right away.

We drove to the Hope Valley in California to see the fall colors in the Sierra Nevada mountains. On the way we passed by a walnut tree farm near Lockeford, where we noticed a lot of dust in the trees. We stopped, it was a good photo opportunity! It turned out that the walnuts just were getting harvested. One machine drove along the nicely arranged trees to shake them one by one to make the nuts fall to the ground, another machine arranged the fallen nuts and debris in the middle between tree rows, and a third machine scooped it up. All that created a lot of dust, to the delight of us three photographers.
I processed a balanced, a paintery, and a photographic HDR photo from two RAW exposures, blended them selectively, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive comments.

Le long du quai de la Bruche (à proximité des Ponts Couverts) se trouve le plus vieux platane de la ville de Strasbourg. Il y a plus de 300 ans, un immense noyer était à cet endroit mais il ne résista pas au rigueur de l'hiver de 1704. Il fallu l'abattre. L'actuel platane est son authentique successeur
Le quai de la Bruche avait, jusqu’à la Révolution française, pour nom Wasserzoll. Ce nom était dû à la taxe qui était alors appliquée sur les marchandises entrant dans Strasbourg par voie d’eau. Ce droit de péage était prélevé par la ville à cet endroit.
Along the Quai de la Bruche (near the covered Bridges) is the oldest plane tree in the city of Strasbourg. More than 300 years ago, an immense walnut tree was there, but it did not withstand the rigor of the winter of 1704. It had to be felled. The current plane tree is his authentic successor
The Quai de la Bruche had, until the French Revolution, for the name Wasserzoll. This name was due to the tax that was then applied to goods entering Strasbourg by water. This toll was levied by the city at this location.
We have a fair number of native black walnut trees here and they seem to have wildly different size crops from one year to the next. I don't remember this particular tree having any nuts before this year when it had a lot. I cracked one open and the nuts are surrounded by thick, black husk material that stained my hands. The nuts are edible for humans and the durable wood is highly prized. Anyway, this is a new one for my prairie seeds set.
